Abstract: The consequences of the global COVID-19 health crisis and racial disparities have an impact on the employment opportunities of individuals with marginalized identities. The heightened need to address systemic oppression calls for advocacy-focused and social justice–informed career practitioners to provide culturally centered interventions to assist clients’ career development. Practitioners need to be aware of the multiple sources of oppression affecting their clients and develop the skills necessary to understand their worldview. Using a case study and Furman’s (2012) social justice leadership framework, we discuss the importance of career practitioners implementing praxis across internal and external dimensions.
